Isolation For Rega P3

Have a Rega P3 with Elys on sorbethane feet on 3/4" maple board which is on heavy shelf in built in entertainment center. Top end is a bit bright. Have received all kinds of advice from changing cartridge to special platforms. Any ideas? Electronics are first rate Linn products so that's not the issue.

Hi Jeff,

We have had a great many excellent reports from people that use our Big Rock platform under the Rega. The Big Rock is the original "sandbox" type of platform. DIY versions of the Big Rock, however, typically do not perform to the same level.

Best,

Hi PJH99,

The maple board does resonate (as does all natural wood) which may be contributiing to the brightness you are experiencing. It is best to avoid materials that resonate (wood, acrylic, etc.) and materials that ring (stone, metal, etc.) as supports for audio and video equipment.

Best Regards,

Barry
